ds firmware upload

[milkkart]

Would it be possible to flash a DS firmware using the 'upload to firmware in NDS' option under utilities-->remote access?

You mean make changes to one already on your PC? No.

[milkkart]

No i mean could you use it to upload say, the flashme firmware to your DS.

flashme firmware?

[gnrathon]

do you mean a dump you got from the internet?
cause piracy is not allowed here

[milkkart]

flashme is a firmware used to run homebrew software without a passme or something similar.
to solve any piracy issue, could it be used to upload a firmware file that i had dumped my self and modified onto a DS?

[SCHUMI-4-EVA]

As far as I know only the original firmware works.

Most games these days don't require it by the way.

I think he meant he wants to dump the firmware from his Nintendo DS, then modify it on his PC (for example to make available brightness changes on a Nintendo DS fat) and then upload the modified firmware from his PC to his Nintendo DS

FYI More info on FlashMe

I would like to know if it's possible to use a cable to connect an NDS to PC and use NO$GBA connection options as with Xboo and GBA, to dump the firmware for example, instead of using an homebrew to do it

[milkkart]

Really i want to use the flashme firmware, i just used the example of modifying my own firmware to avoid any piracy issues.

Anyway theres a pinout for an NDS xboo cable there, M3DSS_GBATEK_NDS - ¤á¤é¤Þ¤ó PukiWiki
But i dont know where on the DS the actual points your supposed to be conecting to are.

edit: just read that page i link a bit better and saw this

Why do you want it though? no$gba can't really make use of all it's functions...and can't manipulate it any way...so it's kinda pointless other than the fact that it will look cool/like what you are used.
